My few hours as a blonde at the school party for K-6 this afternoon! Even my own son and daughter-in-law didn't know me!

A Ghost to be Afraid of?...
This little fellow is guarding my carport,.... I'm sure he will scare away all the goblins this Halloween!
I've had him for years, he has a bulb inside that lights up,... I fell in love with that face and my grandchildren all ask when "Casper" is going to come up from the cellar.
Happy Halloween, Casper!

4-H Cookie Time!...
This evening the doorbell rang and there were two young boys selling 4-H cookies and candy bars. The proceeds from this goes to fund award trips to the state capitol, state fair and "Club Congress" at Cornell University. As these boys are my grandsons I immediately chose several packages to buy!
If you aren't familiar with 4-H, here is the website,... http://www.4-h.org/ and the wikipedia page,... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/4-H . My grandchildren are third generation 4-H club members. A great-grandmother, a great-grandfather and a grandmother were 4-H club leaders. I guess 4-H is a family thing!

Frosty Morning,...
After a glorious sunset the night before,...
Sunday morning dawned bright and clear,...
The maple leaves have fallen, but the sumacs still hold on,....
Tiny threads of frost cover the deck railing like a fuzzy white blanket,...
And frost beads decorate the chairs,...

And frost beads decorate the chairs,...The camper is at dealer's for winterization and service, my grandson has mowed my lawn for the last time, and he's helped me get some camping equipment stowed away in the cellar for the winter. It's nearly time to turn the page to winter,...

Saranac Village,...
Last evening I was invited by a friend to go with her to an evening of music at Saranac Village at Will Rogers. What a fun evening it was! Featured was Dave Nichols and Spare Change, check them out at:
Saranac Village at Will Rogers is a seventy-unit retirement community. It occupies the historical building built to be a "cure" home for theatrical tuberculosis patients. This photo is taken from their website listed below.
The current residents of Saranac Village enjoyed the evening of music and chatting with Dave and his band members during their intermission.
A "good time was had by all" as the social accounts of olden days used to report!

Why Do I Love Camping?...
Because,....
Freighters going by just off the shore of our site,....
Canada Geese stopping to rest on their way south,...
A full moon rising,...
Sunset over the St.Lawrence River,...
